Jimi Hendrix-"Valleys of Neptune"  

Hi, Mike!
Thanks for letting me know about this. I've been out of touch a bit, but I wouldn't pass up anything Hendrix!
Had he lived, I hope he's have been an eternal great. Can't help wondering if he left us at his peak, though...

hi lambie If its just been released I bet my son will get it, and will'come over here and put it on my computer too, I loved his
music and yes I bet he would have been still a great hit had
he lived longer. I would love to hear it, and since my son is trying
to bring his mom into listening to modern music he is sure to get that
album. I don't think he realizes I really liked Jimi Hendrix music.
he knows I love classical music, but I also love a lot of other music too.

If only!

I was just getting into music then and he was all I played as I couldn't afford to buy many records. His was one the first 'singles' that I had so I knew them inside out. I was then in charge of buying the LPs at the youth club and we had all of his!

His music doesn't date either.

If only...

I found this which some might like too hear:

No, I in fact started to hate Jimi Hendrix! Maybe I listened to his songs two years ago and now his songs are quite really boring, but lamb ,yeah that dude has got super talent. Pity he died so young ! He could have become Master of Guitars today - but I would even consider listening to JH's songs which have released!

Yes I love him Lamb always have.
I am not suprised at what has happened..he was a genius.
He deserves all recognition even in his death Lamb.

No Lamb - I am not a fan of Jimi Hendrix. I didnt hear his numbers, and even if I might have heard them, they didnt exactly register as something different in my mind. :( But that is because I come from a different culture and have not been exposed to this music! Right now it is Japanese music that has caught my fancy. :) I am here because your discussions are quite informative. :) Thanks for letting me know. I will listen to those numbers and knowing your good tastes, I am sure I will enjoy them. Music is great way to start the day.

Guess what happened to Jimi Hendrix on his first gig?

He was thrown out of the bar.

Anyways he rocks, i,ve seen Red House with Hendrix, joplin and Morrison singing together, awesome, but i will sure get the latest version you are talking about , can you send me some links where i can find this on the internet. Keep rollin.

My Jimi Hendrix experience was just that...an EXPERIENCE!!! Growing up in a Southern racist family where no black drug addict was allowed inside, I didn't get to hear Jimi for a long time. By the time I did hear him, I was into completely different type of music. Yes, he was a great musician, but he just wasn't my cup of tea. When I met my last husband, he was a HUGE Jimi fan. He introduced me to the Blues & even though I grew up thinking of Jimi as Rock...he most definitely was Blues through & through!!! I love some of his music & some does nothing for me.

Since coming to myLot, I've learned one thing for sure...YOU have GREAT taste in music!!! I didn't even know Jimi had a new album come out. I'm downloading it off iTunes even as I type. I CANNOT wait to hear the songs on this album!!! I think it was SAD that he died at such an early age!!! I think Jimi, much like Eric Clapton, would still be a WONDERFUL guitar player; but as life goes through it's ups & downs, I don't know if he would still be at the top of his game. Please don't misunderstand what I'm saying as I think he'd still be an AWESOME guitarist, but the young kids wouldn't be buying his music.

Good morning. :-)

I was never a Hendrix fan, but I went over to YouTube and had a listen for a while. Wow. Maybe I should have been.

And who knows, maybe in some parallel universe somewhere he is an old man having a farewell concer...

Hey Lamby! I am a huge Hendrix fan, of course! And I love "Fire"~
And so many of his other hits! I also love the way he played
the "Star Spangled Banner" at Woodstock! Still the best rendition
ever! I don't think that there was a song that he did that I
didn't love! And I would love to hear that slower rendition
of "Red House"! If he was still alive today, as Janis Joplin
and Jim Morrison too, they would be making the most incredible
music ever! How sad that we lost them all way too soon! Rest
in peace you guys, but I know you're rockin' that band in
Heaven! So, when me and mikey get there (and yes WE are going
to get there BOTH of us!)we are going to be partyin' our azzes
off!Yahoooweeee!
